Description

Heart of Stone is sourced from grapes grown in several distinctly different sites within Marlborough in an area where the vines struggle for survival in ancient riverbed stones and gravel. The resultant crop amounts to only a handful of intensely flavoured grapes per vine. This is a vibrant wine with flavours of blackberry, gooseberry and passionfruit underscored by appetising, crisp acidity which produces a refreshing finish. It will partner white fish and salads to perfection.

Forrest Wines

Just outside of Renwick, in Marlborough, the Forrest family has been crafting wines since the 1980’s. Returning to family roots of farming in the region seemed a natural progression for John and Brigid Forrest, after successful careers in scientific research and medicine. They don’t believe in using ‘sustainability’ as a buzzword to make them look better. From the vineyards to the processing plant, to the bottles themselves, every aspect has been considered with sustainability and minimal environmental impact in mind.
